Home Page It lies on the path around the shed like a thick door mat. It's like seeing a cross section of a block of flats; the spaces between the stems and aerial roots are filled by spotted slugs, curled up in their lairs, garden snails and brown-lipped snails and one smooth newt, also snugly curled up in one of the spaces. Robin, dunnock and wren have all built their nests in it over the years. We lever the shed out to get behind it. In the bottom of the hedge there are three frogs, each of them a similar size and a similar shade of green. Hunkered down amongst the debris and leaf litter there a medium-sized toad, which I pick up and release in pond, out of harm's way.
